  • Original song is The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us! by Sufjan Stevens. I really like singing (though I'm not too good at it), this one turned out, well.. not perfect, but not bad either, so here it is. New video soon, maybe next week?

    Lyrics:
    Thinking outrageously I write in cursive
    I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor
    Wearing three layers of coats and leg warmers
    I see my own breath on the face of the door
    Oh I am not quite sleeping
    Oh I am fast in bed
    There on the wall in the bedroom creeping
    I see a wasp with her wings outstretched
    North of Savanna we swim in the Palisades
    I come out wearing my brother's red hat
    There on his shoulder my best friend is bit seven times
    He runs washing his face in his hands
    Oh how I meant to tease him
    Oh how I meant no harm
    Touching his back with my hand I kiss him
    I see the wasp on the length of my arm
    Oh great sights upon this state! Hallelu-
    Wonders bright, and rivers, lake. Hallelu-
    We were in love. We were in love
    Palisades! Palisades!
    I can wait. I can wait
    [Backing - Simultaneous to above]
    Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake. Hallelu-
    We were in love. We were in love
    Palisades! Palisades!
    I can wait. I can wait
    [Backing - Simultaneous to above]
    Trusting things beyond mistake. Hallelu-
    [Horn breakdown]
    We were in love. We were in love
    Palisades! Palisades!
    I can wait. I can wait
    We were in love. We were in love
    Palisades! Palisades!
    I can wait. I can wait
    [Backing - Simultaneous to above]
    Lamb of God, we sound the horn. Hallelu-
    We were in love. We were in love
    Palisades! Palisades!
    I can wait. I can wait
    [Backing - Simultaneous to above]
    Unto us your ghost is born. Hallelu-
    I can't explain the state that I'm in
    The state of my heart, he was my best friend
    Into the car, from the back seat
    Oh, admiration in falling asleep
    All of my powers, day after day
    I can tell you, we swaggered and swayed
    Deep in the tower, the prairies below
    I can tell you- the telling gets old
    Terrible sting and terrible storm
    I can tell you the day we were born
    My friend is gone, he ran away
    I can tell you, I love him each day
    Though we have sparred, wrestled and raged
    I can tell you I love him each day
    Terrible sting, terrible storm
    I can tell you...
